Parental Experience in the Single Ventricle Interstage Utilizing a mHealth Innovation: A Comparative Case Study

"The proposed research study uses a comparative case study methodology, utilizing multiple sources of data to deeply examine 8-10 cases, each of which is defined as parent(s) of a child (\< 5 years of age) with single ventricle disease who used the mHealth application. One group of cases (4-5) will have used the mHealth application less than recommended (non-adherent to the home monitoring recommendations) or declined to use the application and returned it before the end of the interstage period. The other group of comparison cases (4-5 cases) will have used the application as recommended by the clinical team (adherent) and continued doing so through the interstage period."
